Watch what you eat: 'Body sold' to Russia kebab shop

published by s.b.f on 14 November, 2009 - 17:09

Police in Russia have arrested three homeless men suspected of killing a man, eating part of the body and selling other parts to a kebab shop.
The men were held in the city of Perm, some 1,400km (870 miles) east of Moscow, local investigators said.
Their statement said that the suspects had targeted the 25-year-old victim out of "personal hostility".
It was not clear when the incident occurred. The men - who have not been named - have been charged with murder.
The investigators said on Friday that the body of the man had been found in a forested area near a public transport stop in Perm.
They said the three men attacked their victim with knives and a hammer.

'I agreed to become a suicide bomber'

published by You on 13 November, 2009 - 01:28

A 14-year-old boy in the tribal region of Bajaur, in north-west Pakistan, says he was detained by Taliban forces who tried to turn him into a suicide bomber. The boy is now in army hands.

He provided a detailed account to BBC correspondent Orla Guerin. His story cannot be independently verified.

There were five people who came after me from a place in Bajaur. They tricked me. They told me they were going to behead my father.

I went with them but my father wasn't there. They tied me up.

They said: 'You have two choices. We will behead you, or you will become a suicide bomber.' I refused.

Why can't chimps speak?

published by You on 12 November, 2009 - 02:25

If humans are genetically related to chimps, why did our brains develop the innate ability for language and speech while theirs did not? Scientists suspect that part of the answer to the mystery lies in a gene called FOXP2. When mutated, FOXP2 can disrupt speech and language in humans. Now, a UCLA/Emory study reveals major differences between how the human and chimp versions of FOXP2 work, perhaps explaining why language is unique to humans.

Published Nov. 11 in the online edition of the journal Nature, the findings provide insight into the evolution of the human brain and may point to possible drug targets for human disorders characterized by speech disruption, such as autism and schizophrenia.

Question to all

published by YouShutup on 11 November, 2009 - 15:03

A person steals from a Masjid's collection and is caught red handed (on camera to be precise).

Should this person be exposed to the community?

If you're from the GW area then you'll most likely know what/who I'm talking about.

Now I'm a pretty aggressive guy in RL. So I'm very proud of myself for treating this person badly. :badgrin:

I know about the covering another's sin. But this is pretty heinous crime and in Morocco they named a market after the punishment for this kind of crime. Juma-Ul-Finaa... Friday of death. Biggrin
